The Hanover family.

It was late at night, yet Quill summoned a doctor to treat the wound on Minerva's hand.

"Well, Miss Hanover, for your wound, avoid contact with water for the time being. You'd better get yourself excused from work. You will recover in a few days' time. Remember to only eat light foods for the next few days."

"Thank you very much." Quill indifferently instructed George to send the doctor home.

"Did you hear the doctor's advice?"

Minerva sat on the sofa and said impassively, "I heard it. How am I going to take a bath tonight? Are you telling me that I can't bathe for the next few days?"

Quill pondered for a while and answered directly, 'Til ask Vera to help you out."

"Well, I don't think that's necessary. In fact, I guess covering my hand will do while I take a bath later."

Quill heaved a sigh and stared silently at Minerva. She immediately felt a little embarrassed and chuckled. "Alright, I won't take a shower. I'll head upstairs to take a rest. It's been a long day." "Alright."

When Minerva returned to her room, she found that Beanie had already fallen asleep.

She went to the bedside and gazed at Beanie. Beanie... resembled that person.

In the past five years, Quill had been asking her to return to Hidalgo. However, she didn't do so as she refused to see that person again.

She initially thought that she might not bump into him since North City was a large city. Despite that, never did she expect that... she crossed paths with him after coming back for a short while. And they met face-to-face...

That was something that Minerva had never imagined.

As she thought of him, her face darkened. She stood up and walked out of the bathroom at a slow pace. Suddenly, there was a soft knock at the door.
